Sep 11, 2021 at 8:48 comment added TaW Right. But I just can't trust a source on the main issue when makes up such petty details for no good reason..
Sep 11, 2021 at 8:40 comment added Schmuddi @TaW: And this is claimed to have happened with "incredible consistency". I guess that's what the New York Times mean when they say that "no one writes with more narrative panache" than Lewis...

Sep 10, 2021 at 20:57 comment added Nate Eldredge The best published source seems to be Keltner, D., Gruenfeld, D. H., & Anderson, C. (2003). Power, approach, and inhibition. Psychological Review, 110(2), 265–284. doi.org/10.1037/0033-295X.110.2.265
Sep 10, 2021 at 20:56 comment added Nate Eldredge thenewstatistics.com/itns/2019/05/22/… says the researchers were Dacher Keltner and Dan Ward; the year was sometime prior to 1996; the study was actually done at the University of Wisconsin, Madison; the paper was never published; and the original data were lost.
Sep 10, 2021 at 20:51 comment added Nate Eldredge Lewis attributes the experiment to "a pair of researchers in the Cal [University of California, Berkeley] psychology department", "a few years ago" (in 2012). That would be useful information to include for people trying to track it down.
